Zen Technologies reported a Q1 FY27 revenue drop of 10% YoY and a net profit fall of 28% YoY, with EBITDA margins at 41%. The company's order book stood at ₹1,239 crore as of June 30, 2026. Shares slipped 5% after the company reported Q1 FY27 results, as execution remains weighted towards Q2 and Q3.
Zen Technologies share price was trading at ₹1,681.2 per piece, down 5%, on July 27, 2026. Trading volume stood at 10 lakh shares, compared with the 30-day average volume of 7.4 lakh shares. The subdued price action coincided with the company's Q1 FY27 results, which showed revenue coming in below recent quarterly levels, though the company has attributed this to the timing of its order book execution rather than any deterioration in demand.
The sales performance by Zen Technologies in Q1 FY27 stood at ₹142 crore, which is less compared to the ₹158 crore and ₹178 crore recorded in the same quarter last year and Q4 FY26, respectively. This reduction is based on the order execution cycle of the company and not weak demand for the products since most of the orders placed by Zen Technologies are placed in October 2025. This places the average execution period of an order at twelve months, placing the bulk of revenue conversion in Q2 and Q3 FY27.
EBITDA came in at ₹58 crore, implying an EBITDA margin of 41%, lower than the 55% recorded in Q1 FY26 but broadly reflective of the lower sales base rather than cost overruns. PBT stood at ₹49 crore, while net profit declined 28% YoY to ₹34 crore from ₹48 crore in Q1 FY26.
The company's order book stood at around ₹1,239 crore as of June 30, 2026. Later in July 2026, the company has got a fresh order of ₹178 crore for the upgradation and integration of tank and crew gunnery simulators. Most of the existing order pipeline would translate into revenue from Q2 FY27 onwards, and orders won till Q2 FY27 would partly get executed in Q4 FY27.
During Q1 FY27, Zen Technologies introduced several new products. These include an AI-powered anti-drone system, the Hyperstrike interceptor drone, the Zen Vrishab unmanned ground vehicle, and the Integrated Smart Border Suite. The company also stated that it has completed the research and development for its first air simulator product, with negotiations with original equipment manufacturers at an advanced stage, a development that would mark its formal entry into the air simulation segment, complementing existing offerings for the Army and Navy.
Zen Technologies is a Hyderabad-based defence technology company specialising in combat training systems and anti-drone solutions. It has shipped more than 1,000 training systems globally and holds over 230 patent applications. The company's products are recognised by India's Ministry of Science and Technology and manufactured at its Hyderabad facility.
